AFrisnd Of the Priest charges Archb1shop

A Friend of the Priest charged Archb1sh0p
Corrican with Unfairness.
New YORK, January ga friend OF
DR.. McGlynn a interviewed this after
moor n regard to the effect Archbishop
C~orrigan's letter had upon the followers Of
the former pastor of st. Stephens. He
said the friends OF DR.. Edward McGlynn
cay that he is not disturbed by the state
ment of Archbishop Corrigan. They say
His Grace has. with seeming unfairness, left
out all that part OF the correspondence be-
tween him and Father McGlynn which
stood in favor OF the priest. In the letter
OF December Goth, quoted by His Grace as
a fiat refusal OF the priest to 60 to Rome, it
is said Father McGlynn gave imperative
personal and family reasons why beshould
not go; that what is given as a bold de-
fiance OF the Archbishop was really but q
plain statement OF Father McGlynn's pc
sition, which, as he could not go to Rome
himself, he expected the Archbishop, with
whom he had all the discussion with the
Holy See, to send to Rome. He intended
it, as written. as q personal and verbal
statement OF his case to the Holy See. The
Archbishop knew that to give publication
to the reason given by Father McGlynn
"Oulu uIStICoo ulb ldCuCA Nv A1o III
Instead O. saying that the clauses quoted
followed after the reasons OF the priest for
not going to Rome, His Grace quotes boldly,
II will not 60 to Rome. I have taught the
doctrine OF common property in land and
I will continue 80 to teach" without a
word of explanation or intimation OF the
preceding portions OF the letter. which was
sent as an excuse by the advice OF DR..
Shrady, who now declares that Father
McGlynn's health was SO bad for the past
six months that the an ocean voyage |
would seriously ~endanger his future useful
ness. Father McGlynn will write a reply |
as soon as he is well enough, and it will be
a veritable bomb in the court Of His Grace.
The Archbishop will pay no attention to
the challenge of Henry George. He says he
has already denied having issued i~nstruc-
tions to priests regarding the constitu-
tional convention, and that is enough.
